CSU expands its Field Days site
16 OCTOBER 2012
Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Orange will have a bigger-than-usual footprint at the Australian National Field Days when it unveils its new, larger, outdoor site today. The University has traditionally been represented with a stand in the education pavilion at the annual event, but School of Agricultural and Wine Sciences academic Ms Shevahn Telfser said this year’s larger stand would provide space for interactive demonstrations. “The stand will feature a horse skeleton which visitors can help assemble as they learn the names of each part, and a display of common and not-so-common fruits and vegetables which visitors can examine and name,” Ms Telfser said. “The idea is to engage visitors with some fun, educational activities they will be required to complete in order to earn a visitor’s bag. The Field Days is a great opportunity to not only show school-aged visitors what Charles Sturt University can offer them, but to also demonstrate our continuing commitment to agricultural science and business degrees in Orange.” The Australian National Field Days will run from today Tuesday 16 October to Thursday 18 October at Borenore near Orange.
